San Marino vs Liechtenstein | 2020-21 UEFA Nations League | Group D2 Predictions eFootball PES2020

well very well welcome to you on this most pleasantly clear evening conditions absolutely beautiful perfect for the beautiful game temperatures are kind as well no doubt playing a hand in high attendance levels as well as an elevated level of anticipation here surely this is the hot ticket going around in this deck of the woods it surely must be [Applause] there's a venue this which simply adds to the spectacle of the game it stages one of the most impressive arenas in this part of the world how are you reading this formation jim becklin well this setup peter can be very defensive if that midfield is in place purely to form a protective layer in front of the back four but it can also be the launch pad to very quick counter attacks if you can offer pace and accuracy on the front foot it can have a devastating effect actually at the offensive end of the pitch [Applause] that's too things underway [Applause] [Applause] tries to get it forward quickly play for a throw chip through gets good distance on it oh that is lovely footwork plenty waiting in the middle goes for goal all the balls come loose now a chance to break [Applause] just brushed off the ball there drives it towards the front well played he saw that coming i sit forward tries to locate someone up front as they might they just couldn't get into an attacking area played out to the right gets his foot in there and it's paid forward let's put a stop to that quick pull forward [Applause] forward it goes he's made sure that that won't get through tries to get it forward quickly hoists it forward done very well to intervene anything jim to pick out of these early exchanges well both sides seem happy with the patient approach for now still trying to have a good look at one another receives it in a good position looks to thread it through and they've hitched one [Applause] well he was never going to miss from there so much to aim at peter that was just a defensive act of generosity that was always going to uh have a painful ending deadlock broken it's one nil well just listen to the reaction i think you can hear the approval from the support all around the stadium and it's paid forward gets it back tried to play it through our peter his body shape was a giveaway before he made the pass and its obviousness was was appreciated [Applause] hardly anything between the sides and the score is one nil [Applause] hoist it forward looks to bypass the midfield up towards the front line the message is clear none shall pass pinged forward well they could break here [Applause] he's having a look round tries to get it clear lays it out to the flank forward it goes [Applause] looks to clip it forward defending of the desperate variety looking to hit the front line goes to wreck to the front line oh that's a waste well it did look promising to start with but in the end they were thwarted before they could even make it into the final third [Applause] great strength too strong for his opponent good run ultimately thwarted by an astute piece of defending crowd appreciates good football all round there some good play on the left-hand side now to profit from it good take by the keeper he's read that [Applause] well it's a good run down the right where could this lead well the crowd clearly liked what they just saw some real no-nonsense defending [Applause] cut out in the nick of time it's being played forward tries to get it forward quickly defense got the better of him this time but i'm sure he'll go again [Applause] that will annoy the manager they're making themselves too predictable here gets into a dangerous position oh well defended that had to be done he could have been in just needed a better final ball uh that was just poor decision making and a weak execution knocks it away plays it long he acknowledges that he should have come up with something better there was too timid to make it through the defense it'll be noted and improved upon i'm sure [Applause] battles to win it back [Applause] and it's paid forward [Applause] that's been drilled forward played in with accuracy paul needed to be better there it's a wasted chance [Music] one of the scores only one nil but that doesn't tell the full story forward pass [Applause] [Applause] and the weighted pass [Applause] managed to get it away good work on the right flank now what's next looking to get within range beautifully done so who's he picking out shapes to shoot lingered over it and the chance to counter had gone look if they're gonna counter it has to be pacier and much more decisive well that's where he wants it tries to get it forward quickly oh well intercepted really alert to the danger steered forward last ditch defending but that'll do they've got it back as soon as they gave it away out to the right [Applause] and that's been leave it clear and now they can launch a counter good running with the ball can they build on it is there any big chance oh what a wonderful stop oh that's a sparkling save absolutely sparkling his reflexes work ultra sharp [Applause] and it's hoisted clear [Applause] that'll be the last act of the first half and there they are off they go for half time the breakthrough did indeed come in the first half but there has only been that one goal i'm sure they'll be very happy in the first half performing and the scoreline they'll definitely want to maintain the momentum now and finish the job missile goes and we start the second half a solitary goal that has been the crucial difference hoists it forward doesn't get the pass he's looking for he's pinned one through he's going for goal great save real class well that was high class goalkeeping there to back up his his high class wage [Applause] repelled by the keeper [Applause] pulls loose who's getting there it's come from real chance that's caused the worry or two [Applause] and he just works it away chance no messing about just grudging the way forward it goes a long ball but not especially accurate and it's paid forward christians were asked but he's given the answers hoist it forward oh good interception tries to get it forward quickly late towards the front then looks to play him in a minor communications breakdown hoist it forward tries to get it forward quickly has he found his man that's been intercepted and that will come to nothing [Applause] and it's played forward cleared away [Applause] drives it towards the front well positioned to make that interception forward it goes oh well intercepted really alert to the danger played in with accuracy up towards the front line that's not going to make it dashing forward at pace this was gone that's a foul [Applause] [Music] [Applause] gorgeous control there [Applause] place it out to the wing [Applause] more impressions so far jim they're ahead but they're not playing as if they are there seems to be uh more of an emphasis on protecting their lead than than adding to it it's all gone a little timid [Applause] tries to get it forward i sit forward good idea just poorly [Applause] executed [Applause] [Music] out to the right a really good feat from him paul has crossed the line and it's a throw [Applause] sticks in a foot to win it back he's pulled him up for that challenge [Applause] could move up a gear here [Applause] paul needed to be better there it's a wasted chance that's what has to be done now no question about it jim there's not too much subtlety or sophistication about this it really is a question of needs must well there's no two ways about it this is what they have to do [Applause] looking to hit the front line well that's where he wants it he's made sure that that won't get through and it's paid forward and it's been intercepted and that will come to [Applause] nothing [Applause] well played he saw that coming [Applause] hoist it forward [Applause] flings it across [Applause] balls out on the left now [Applause] that is terrific skill can he deliver [Applause] just a quarter of an hour to play and surely that does it traffic time decisive strike [Applause] so there is some activity down on the touchline it seems there's going to be a change well to wait until now to make this change seems a bit baffling he's expecting the miraculous to turn this around from here so that's two now without reply cuts it out tries to locate someone up front [Applause] looks to bypass the midfield good challenge he just stood firm tries to get it forward quickly done very well to intervene forward it goes forward it goes tries to get it clear and no that is pretty much the end of [Applause] that tries to get it forward quickly last ditch defending but that'll do [Applause] that's one way of trying to make things happen there's a few who could follow that example [Applause] and that's been leave it clear hoist it forward oh good interception and it's played forward leading by two and the finishing line in sight questions were asked but he's given the answers oh that's clearly not what he wanted to do quick ball forward tries to get it forward quickly he's made sure that that won't get through forward it goes [Applause] i sit forward great strength too strong for his opponent goes direct to the front line oh well intercepted really alert to the danger forward pass yeah that's top defending in preventing him turning which can open up many possibilities [Applause] is there time for one more twist [Applause] perfect placement the one place the keeper couldn't reach well you know sometimes it pays off not to think too much about things just put your foot through it and that was a good example great contact and the keeper had very little chance [Applause] we have got ourselves a game here and the referee brings it to a close whatever the shortcomings on either side it was a great game to watch just one between them how do you reflect on what we've seen yeah they had a game plan which was about hammering away in central positions and it paid off for me they were persistent and ruthless [Applause] and all that remains for me is to thank jim beglin that's it from us tonight a very good evening to one and all hmm you
